Grinding ankles.....

6 Replies

So nice active recovery day fancied a fast trot around the block with the woofer so didn’t put on my fancy pants trainers as I thought, oh it’s only

3k walk ! MISTAKE my Lord I had to stop about 6 times in the first 30 minutes to twist crick and stretch my poor ankles as they ground down into the floor! Never ever again! My legs were well

Up for it but my ankles? Nope!
